The Russ Buchan report
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

I wanted to meet Roy Rogers when I was a kid. Ten years later I got to park his car at a North-South Shrine game at the LA Colisseum Shrine game in 1961.

I never thought to meet Emperor Haille Selassie of Ethiopia, but one day in the '70s a friend and I were trespassing in the Los Angles Harbor Ferry Building, when to our surprise, Tom Bradley, the Mayor, and the Lion Of Judah himself were about to tie up. We took a chance and welcomed him at the top of the ladder. "Welcome to Los Angeles, your Excellency," I stammered. You woud be surprised how many Rastafarians love to shake the hand that shook the hand.

Score Two.

Today out of the blue, Doug Kibbey called while I was getting an oil job, and suggested we get together. Wow... an old Army buddy I never met.

Doug Kibbey of the straight Ontos barrels at seven years old. An honor.

Score Three.

I can neither confirm nor deny the drinkin' part.

Sincerely,
Russ

The Pope came to Canada twenty years ago. It was a huge public event, so I found a place on the roadside and readied my camera. I have three pictures of the Pope - a hand is in the way, a post is in the way, and his back is turned. My brush with a famous person.
